How are these in comparison to netarchy kernels?
[Nexus S Android Development] kenvan19:
They have kernels but they are ROMs, not specifically kernels so the comparison is not really very valid. I'm not sure which kernel the versions that incorporate the Voodoo improvements are using.
[Nexus S Android Development] Tplpeters:
faild root

Innstalled Supercurio's Voodoo Kernel - Rooted failed to get root titanium backup fail to get root any ide's sorry for bad english
[Nexus S Android Development] kenvan19:
I assume you mean titanium backup failed, which generally means you don't have busybox installed. There is an easy fix for this: Open titanium backup again and click on the button in the bottom right that says Problems? And the click the button in the middle that says Get Busybox and then finally click the button that says "Yes, do it". This should fix it.
[Nexus S Android Development] Tplpeters:

That did it tanx you love this forum
[Nexus S Android Development] kenvan19:
No problem at all man, happy flashing!
[Nexus S Android Development] Master™:
Just to answer some simple questions I have seen...

No, this ROM doesn't wipe.

Yes, it will update the radio
[Nexus S Android Development] kenvan19:
And Yes, Master is the master ;)
[Nexus S Android Development] saryu:
hey hey... i flash the one with voodoo kernel rooted..

1st, i think i lost my root (or is it supposed to be that way ?)

2nd, my home button doesn't responding (maybe because in CM7 i replace the home button function?)

3rd, i don't have my lockscreen, when i press power button, i go straight to my homescreen and i have no way to put back my lockscreen (maybe because in CM7 i remove my lockscreen?)
[Nexus S Android Development] Master™:
This ROM doesn't wipe.. So you need to go into recovery && wipe

Then reflash
[Nexus S Android Development] sagarpruthi:
hi i wanted to know if i can use Supercurio's Voodoo Kernel - Rooted along with that also flash Netarchy's 1.2.5 CFS kernel.
[Nexus S Android Development] lmerega:
Everything works flawlessly.

Great job man!
[Nexus S Android Development] Master™:
You can't use 2 kernels at once o.O
[Nexus S Android Development] sagarpruthi:
thanks man.
[Nexus S Android Development] jlevy73:
Lol, although I wish I could :eek:
[Nexus S Android Development] willcpfc:
This rom is awesome! Enjoying the stability and delicious vanilla :)
[Nexus S Android Development] oaldawe:
Nice rom

but i cant change to other rom at 2.3.2

how can i do it
[Nexus S Android Development] brian6685:
Anyone know if there is a GPS fix for the stock 2.3.3 roms? The reason I ask is because I've been using cm7 and GPS locks quickly, now that I'm back to stock its the same old Samsung nonsense with gps taking 2 minutes to lock onto a location, and most of the time its not even that accurate.

Nexus S
[Nexus S Android Development] Master™:
Sorry, I don't quite understand.. :o
[Nexus S Android Development] RemoteSojourner:
Any idea how I can get SIM toolkit app working on this ROM?
[Nexus S Android Development] allen099:
Thanks for the work put into these roms. I'm using the stock rooted, and am watching my battery indicator percentage tick down every few minites without any application running.

Anyone else seeing this?
[Nexus S Android Development] jlevy73:
No, battery life has been excellent. Try installing an app called "Watchdog" from the market. It will monitor cpu usage by app so you can see which app or even system app is taxing your device. This is really helpful in isolating rogue apps when you have over 150+ on your device.
[Nexus S Android Development] willcpfc:
Greetings! So deodexed...what does this offer for us users? I am just curious as I have no idea. Still loving the rom...no issues. Thanks Master :)
[Nexus S Android Development] Aria807:
I can install this if I currently am on 2.3.2 right? And I will basically apply this over 2.3.2 as if it were an update from google?
[Nexus S Android Development] allen099:
Thanks! I'll give that a shot. It's disappointing because I just turned the phone on, and 3 minutes later it dropped 1% without anything running. I even went into Manage Applications and stopped most of the processes. I will give Watchdog a shot.
[Nexus S Android Development] janjan:
looking forward to seeing Axura..thanks :)
[Nexus S Android Development] willcpfc:
anyone tried a custom kernel with these cool roms?
[Nexus S Android Development] jlevy73:
I have used Netarchy 1.2.6 and 1.2.7 and those work fine. Also been messing around with Supercurio's kernels as he further develops color tweaks. Morfic is still working on a stock 2.3.3 kernel.
[Nexus S Android Development] willcpfc:
Thanks. I want a Morfic one :D

I am seriously loving this rom though! CM has some cool features but for stability and battery life this is much better for me.
[Nexus S Android Development] grippa:
can you anyone please tell me if these roms are GRI40 or GRI54? thanks :)
[Nexus S Android Development] willcpfc:
Gri40 here :)
[Nexus S Android Development] grippa:
thanks mate,

wonders whats different on GRI54,,
[Nexus S Android Development] willcpfc:
I don't know either? Still I am ultra happy with this anyway.
[Nexus S Android Development] irishrally:
Paul's MCR is GR154.
[Nexus S Android Development] liorry:
Keep coming back to this ROM. Most stable and fast 2.3.3 ROM.

can you please update the radio to KB3 and fix the gps link from apps like tasker and widgetsoid?
[Nexus S Android Development] Kingken:
Same here...but I have no problem with kb1 radio..found reception better with kb1 radio.
[Nexus S Android Development] uae_camel:
i did the oem unlock

rooted the nexus s

and flashed to your rom, the deodoxed voodoo rooted

all went ok..

cant find the market application.. its gone..

any help ?
[Nexus S Android Development] eiabea:
you also have to install google apps (gapps)

http://goo-inside.me/gapps/
[Nexus S Android Development] uae_camel:
one more question but this may sound stupid.

I know I gotta install the HDPI Gapps, but which one? or all?
[Nexus S Android Development] QuantumRand:
Can I throw Netarchy or Trinity on top of these ROMs?
[Nexus S Android Development] reddv1:
I was testing the apk's in your deodexed roms and I've noticed all the apk's fail alignment verification. Maybe you should Zipalign the apk's, so they are better opitimized. Just a suggestion :)
[Nexus S Android Development] kofijay:
Will this work on captivate?
[Nexus S Android Development] kofijay:
And please check your download links ... they aren't working!

[G1 General] landoftheeskimos:
It's still a fairly active device.

I have ezGingerbread on mine and lots of people are using CyanogenMod7 and a few others based on Gingerbread. As far as Froyo ... well yeah there probably isn't much left to do other than bugfixes.
[G1 General] yohshua:
you got a point gingerbread is where to be its much better then froyo to me ^_^
[G1 General] dhkr234:
The older the hardware is, the less likely it is that people will stick around working on it. Also be aware that most of your list is made up of non-devs.

Most people who worked on Dream have gone to VISION. At some point, you should consider the fact that although Dream was a revolutionary piece of hardware, it is now OLD.
[G1 General] yohshua:
even with it being old it still gets the newest android before even some high end phones and its able to use it as a dd ^_^
[G1 General] dhkr234:
Yes, but you miss the point. There are newer, higher end phones, like HTC VISION, that get the updates faster than *ANYTHING* else.
[G1 General] nldxda:
a perfect, working cm6.1 with the ram upgrade and no battery issues, etc. would be the ultimate rom for g1
[G1 General] jianC:
Well, the Vogue has been out for a looong time and it still is in support (miraculously).

What annoys me about the G1 is the stupid chin lol
[G1 General] raydar670:
The G1 still gets more rom development than the G2 (although it's started to even out). Maybe some devs are leaving, but there are plenty left.

P.S. Thank you devs for all your work :D
[G1 General] yohshua:
i see your point thought if iam not wrong ginger and honeycomb came out for the g1 before the g2
[G1 General] bo4man:
i hope so :)
[G1 General] VeryCoolAlan:
Im jealous of you guys

In the vibrant there's like half the development here
[G1 General] d12unk13astard:
^^switch it up next time then samsung sucks imho in what they have done to vibrant users,sure they have probaly the best display for a phone ever but they should really just stick to making their hdtv's which imo are the best. G1 has the best support ever from devs and it should as it's the OG android device of them all. I will probaly check out the lg optimus2x or htc pyramid next as I believe those are the game changers that will have the same/hopefully better support even then g1.
[G1 General] darbear5610:
Good devs are still here. Pl Laszlo for instance and his excellent FBL 5.2 ROM, Ezterry, Shadowch31, sisterchick, Yoshua and many more.
[G1 General] VeryCoolAlan:
Yea I miss the good ol g1 days when we had a bunch of them and donut was being ported and eclair was hella slow and cm was only for g1 and hero ports were being made, those were the days
[G1 General] VeryCoolAlan:
Lazlo has been here since donut ezterry came when the official 2.2 for mt3g came out shadow was here from eclair and yoshua I don't know who that is
[G1 General] guille26:
I'm using Ezterry's AOSP OTA and I must say it's fast and stable but I miss installing cm builds...

Last time I tryied Ginger Yoshi the phone was unstable, slow and most of the time the notification bar crashed, the work the developers are doing is great but it's true the G1 is old and lacks, a lot, ram.

I will stick to my G1 for some time, I was thinking in getting a SGS which are cheaper now, but I'm not very sure about the community support. The G1 is great and will be great for some time.
[G1 General] azrash:
Is ezterry's faster than biffmod? Honestly I'm new to android and smartphones in general. Just got this g1 last week and I love it still!
[G1 General] chrisgto4:
Those were good times!!

[G1 General] VeryCoolAlan:

[G1 General] :
lol now its just a bunch of people basing their roms off each other -_-
[G1 General] azrash:
But there are still active development as g1 is the Adam of Android xD
[G1 General] :
Pardon? Oh dear.

There are only so many ASOP builds and that has been covered by Terry and Daze. Then the cm/variants which are covered with cm6.1 and stripped down cm from Laszlo. There are even a few sense roms knocking about.

You come in, develop one of the worst roms seen on the development forum in my opinion when it was first released and then start to try and trash the work of others. Poor show fella.

[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] Achotjan:
thanks will try it ;)
[Gen8 General] raindizzle:
has anyone tried? and will it work?
[Gen8 General] ske714:
Nothing like that will work without drivers. If you had linux drivers you might be able to make something work, but it would not be plug and play.
[Gen8 General] raindizzle:
what about those plug and play webcams with installed drivers on them already? shouldn't that work since it is both windows/linux compatible? just as the same how external hard drives will work with our archos, and that also have drivers installed in them. (both windows/linux compatible also)
[Gen8 General] ske714:
Ive never seen one, so I don't know for sure. Hopefully someone else will chime in on that. If you have an a70, there is only limited power available from the usb port. 200ma I think. If you try one and it works, be sure and let us know. :)
[Gen8 General] mchipser:
Just an FYI hard drives and cameras do not usually have drivers installed on them.. For example windows uses a driver called usbstor.sys that usb drives must adhere to in order to work properly. Delete this file and all your lovely USB drives in windows will no longer work unless you installed some crazy 3rd party software..

See here for more info
[Gen8 General] raindizzle:
Ok so I just realized that most apps are drivers within itself (correct?) to run basic functions for a specific hardware like say camera effect apps for the camera. So now here is an idea...since the motorola xoom has a stock camera app implemented on the tablet to run both the front camera and a switch to use the rear camera....wouldn't it be possible as a theory to use a plug and play external usb webcam with the archos tablet and install the motorola xooms camera app instead of the archos camera app to use to switch between the front camera and usb camera (being as a rear camera)?

does anyone know where I can get the motorola xoom camera app to download? I would like to try it myself if I can get a hold of that app and just by a cheapo plug and play cam for 6 bucks if no one else is willing to try it...
[Gen8 General] ske714:
An app is not a driver. A driver basically is the interface between the hardware and the app. When an app interacts with hardware, it does so through the driver. That way a vendor can build hardware however they want, as long as they provide a driver that conforms to pre-established specifications so that the software provider can access it with standard commands. That's why the idea of a camera with built in drivers doesn't make sense. The software would not know to address the camera through the USB port. It needs a driver to address which would in turn address the hardware. Support for devices like thumb drives is built into the operating system, so you don't need a driver.
[Gen8 General] sprocket87:
As has been pointed out, they don't have drivers preinstalled; rather they use protocols that are supported by the host operating system (Windows, Mac, etc) out of the box. The type of "plug and play" webcams you're talking about rely on the the universal WDM in Windows along with such protocols or frameworks as DirectShow, TWAIN, etc.

The point is, the host OS has to know how to talk to those plug-and-play webcams, not the other way around. So in the case of the Archos tablet, it would have to have the same support baked into it at the driver level. Which it doesn't.

So unless you're going to reverse-engineer those protocols and write your own Android driver, it's not gonna happen.

In the case of the Motorola Xoom camera app (or the camera app for any other device/phone for that matter), it's specifically coded to the camera chip used in that device, and has no chance of working with an external webcam. Just like it wouldn't work for the camera in my Evo phone, or anything else besides the Xoom. The only chance would be if it was a device that used the exact same camera chip hardware, but the chances of that are slim. Even devices made by the same manufacturer, such as the HTC Evo and the HTC Droid Incredible, use two different camera chips and drivers.
[Gen8 General] chrulri:
But.. if your usb camera is working with opensource linux drivers (like uvc driver) there is a high chance that it will work on android if someone compiles the missing kernel modules (aka drivers) like I did for dvb devices. AND THEN.. someone has to write an extended camera app which supports selecting different cameras
[Gen8 General] rochertian:
any advancements with this issue?

I have an archos 80 g9 8gb. I want to plug in my Sony video camera using a firwire to USB cable and an USB to micro adapter. I then want to use my tablet to broadcast on ustream.com. I am in a paranormal group, I use a night vision camera, therefore I need to figure out a way to do this. We currently use an apple laptop that constantly needs to be plugged in. Being able to use the tablet for this would a much better solution for a few reasons.

Has anyone found/made any drivers?
[Gen8 General] kalross:
Would be really useful this. I'd donate.
[Gen8 General] Scott183:
I am in a similar boat as a few others here. I want to switch over to an Android tablet in my truck, but it's pretty large and the need of a rear view / back up camera is a must. During my past 48 hoursearch this is the most useful, and encouraging info that I could find. I am not a coder, but those who are can probably work with the source code I found on this site. I hope this helps us all. Maybe with the release of ICS the difficulty usb hosting for webcams won't require that much effort. Have a look

[HD2 General] alecs:
Hi Folks, I am trying to upgrade my ROM from the official HTC site to version 3.14as I am currently on 1.66.

The device is connected successfully via the USB cable (ActiveSync finds the device)

I run the package and it expands all the files

It asks me to ensure the USB cable is connected (which it is)

It starts the upgrade with the progress window at 0%

The device reboots and the multi coloured bars show up on the device which states

PB81100 HX-BC

SPL-1.42.0000 XE

MicroP (LED) 0x05

MicroP (Touch) 0x30

The bottom white bar displays the word SERIAL

However after a minute or so the program is still at 0% and reports it can't connect to the HTC HD2

Can someone help?
[HD2 General] T-Macgnolia:
You can try flashing the update via your micro SD card. Here is the thread here on XDA about how to do this.

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samsamuel:
it is timing out in the time taken for the phone to reboot.

put the phone into bootloader yourself first, then connect usb, wait for serial -> usb, right click your flash.exe file and 'run as administrator'. If it fails, dont touch the phone, swap USb ports and try again. avoid usb ports in teh front of the pc, or through hubs, and avoid 64bit windows.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alecs:
Thanks for the replies folks. I used a different cable and all worked out well. I then started to install apps from my SD card using the SD card as the place to also install the apps which is what I had before.

I installed about 20 apps and all was well but now for some reason my device does not see the SD card!???

If I take out the SD card and put it into the PC I can see all the data. If I take a different SD card and put it into the HD2 it can't see this either.

I am wondering if one of the apps I installed has caused this issue. The only app I am aware of that did anything with the SD card was tnyynt SD TuneUP from this BBS.

I have had this installed before so I don't think it is this but I am otherwise stuck.

I may have to put the old rom back to see if that has something to do with it, I hope not as it has taken ages to get to this stage.

[Edit] Hi, I managed to solve the problem by removing the tnyynt SD TuneUP app. I have now deleted this app from my list. Others be warned.

Any help would be appreciated.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Desure:
I have heard of the advantages of S-OFF and would like to do it. However i have also heard of the risks of bricking my phone permanently. Anyone has any ideas how big is the risk? As in percentage?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mattman83:
I have no idea how accurate this is, but I saw someone mention a figure of about 0.4% failure rate.

Just a reminder - no idea how accurate this is - don't come looking me up if yours does happen to go bad.

Anyway, is there a particular reason you want to S-OFF? Perhaps you don't actually need to which avoids the risk in the first place.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheGhost1233:
Anyone else than the AlphaRev team giving failure rates is just guessing. And i doubt that even AlphaRev knows. I believe failure rate of the process is next to nothing, but the incapability from the user is what causes bricks. If you know what you are getting in to and follow the procedure without doing stupid things there is no realistic risk.

However there is just the bad luck, which at least once happened, where someone's computer crashed during the procedure.

Still keep in mind: You are the only one responsible for your phone, no one else.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] esk02k:
what he said ^

User errors like loose usb cable that gets knocked durring the process

or pc crash. Ive S-OFF'd 2 desires and done similar stuff to a HD2 and

never had any problems. Been worried sick each time but everything went

smooth.

Just make sure the usb cable fits tight if youre going to do it. Both mine and

my friends HTC cable slip out by just brushing past it. I use a samsung cable.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] asp2010:
Besides what @TheGhost1233 and @esk02k said, you should pay attention to the file you are downloading and use an MD5 tool to check the sum of your downloaded file against the one specified in the thread / site (you don't want to be flashing a corrupted file). And only do a flash after you have fully charged your battery ;)
